[Bug 1685535] [NEW] Losing ability to click after opening files in FF download manager

[John Delea]

Public bug reported:

1. Ubuntu version: Ubuntu MATE 17.04 64-bit
2. Firefox version: 53.0+build6-0ubuntu0.17.04.1
3. + 4. Lately whenever I have used the Firefox download manager to open the directory of a downloaded file (such as an image), it has not only failed to open the file but apparently taken away my ability to click using my trackpad. This is a strange and frustrating bug that I have reproduced a number of times and has required me to hard restart the computer after each occurrence.
